Greece: visa decisions in Panama

In 2025, Greece’s embassy and consulates in Panama (Panama City) received 5 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 5. Applications rose by 400% compared with 2024 (1).
For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 6.4% of the applications lodged in Panama that year. Greece’s consulates worldwide refused 14.5%. Greece was the 8th most applied-for Schengen state in Panama.
You apply to the Schengen state that is your main destination (the longest stay or the main purpose; the state of first entry only when there is none), so a lower rate elsewhere is no reason to apply there. The figures cover applications lodged in Panama, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.
